Subject: [PATCH] REPL - invoke pprint reflectively

fixes https://github.com/scala/scala3/issues/24111

reflectively load the function each time, (i.e. don't cache). As this is a rare event (i.e user interaction),
any cost is less of a concern.
if cant load reflectively, then fallback to calling directly.
